String-based searches on page-type properties always refer to the sortkey. This
is intentional. So in your case, the query item [[Seitenname::<Bombus
vestalis]] compares the string "Bombus vestalis" with your chosen sortkey
"vestalis, Bombus". This explains why only "barbutellus, Bombus" is matching.
There is no error here, just some confusion.

You may want to reconsider (a) if the sortkey is the right property for
searching what you want here, and (b) if the sortkey is actually a good choice.
I tried to find "Bombus vestalis" in the list of values on the page
"Attribut:Seitenname" and found this very unintuitive (you may want to try it;
it is really there!). So it seems that the current sortkey creates confusion in
sorting and searching alike.

If you really want the sortkey to be as it is, you can always add a string
property with the real pagename as its value instead. Maybe this was your
intention with "Seitenname" -- as the name suggests.
